Emotional-based rhetoric. Nonsense.


Lots of people here are willing (at least for now) to give up constitutional rights for emotional reasons. I guess if the next Dem president declares gun violence a national emergency and has ATF going door to door doing checks, "Republicans shouldn't have flooded the country with guns" is on the menu?

That's the entire point of that shitty fear-based framing.

We saw the same thing in the thread discussing the SAVE Act and states rights last night. "Oh yeah we don't support states rights b/c we need a federal leviathan to stop my perceived out-group"

It's very basic propaganda that any intelligent person thinking non-emotionally should be able to spot out quite easily.

Naw.

When you debase your argument by referencing the fear of the out-group, you're engaging in fear-based arguments. When fear stops being an emotion, those arguments will stop being emotional.

Nah, we just understand that refusing to play a game based on principle still means we lose the game.

It's not emotional, its completely logical.

The weaponization of the judiciary is probably the second worst thing to happen to the Constitutional order of the country behind only the expansion of executive power at the acquiescence of the legislative.

That's irrelevant to the topic at issue here however.

When did I do that?

Also, this guy claims he's not a progressive.

Me "I dont want open borders"

SFP "Youre just scared of (insert demographic here)."

This is why conservatives (your opposition) doesn't take you seriously.

Still logical.

Refuse to play a game and you'll still be handed a loss.

Oh lord, did you fail at understanding what "out-group" means?

You should just back away, at this point.

You don't seem to be capable of discerning political allegiance or the concepts being discussed in this thread.

Then why stop at immigration? Liberal DAs are letting people go with a slap on the wrist. Why not skip warrants and jury trials and just put them in prison unilaterally? Do you love criminals?

Why not arrest people protesting ICE in Minnesota? Not just the ones obstructing, but the ones standing by and blowing whistles and holding signs? Wouldn't it be easier if we didn't have these instigators?

Where do we draw the line?

No it isn't.

To the extent this is troubling , it would only be acceptable to citizens because they see no legal way out because our institutions have completely crumbled in legitimacy. They don't value constitutional rights when they don't see that our institutions value the constitution.

Explain it to me using the current context (borders and immigration).

Remember last week when a lawyer defending his criminal client was proof that the lawyer was engaged in a criminal conspiracy?

Different game.

We're talking about illegal immigrants, not US citizens.

Showing you don't read good, again.

You shifting the framing to a different discussion doesn't change the actual context.

The "out-group", in the actual discussion, is leftists/Democrats. (Your actual words, "Sucks to be put in this position by democrats.")

I LITERALLY described the argument in detail in the post prior.

Nobody is talking about being scared of black of brown people, as he posted. Wrong group/discussion entirely.

Again, read more good.
